CSS for XXX site design?

Hi, I don't see a problem with tables if thats what you feel comfortable using. There are a multitude of people that would give you a multitude of reasons for NOT using em, but I aint one of em. Although I will say that tables do take longer to load than CSS driven sites.

Personally I prefer to use CSS, now I feel have a good understanding of coding the stuff. The biggest problem I find is the browser compatibility issues between ie and firefox, and if your using ie on a mac then you can forget it!

At the end of the day its all about the bucks (or pounds) Tables will load no matter what crappy browser someone is using, whereas CSS wont load properly on some older browsers or looks all messed up. Hence the punter with the crap browser probably wont buy from me.

I have an important project on the drawing board, and I cant decide to use css or or go back and use tables...hmmm
